Some who could sadly not even read/write.I live in a pretty large tech area in Northern Virginia now so I'm sure there are lots of traveling workers that come through however I think the real problem is going to be recent regulations that prevent individual STR landlords from maximizing their profits.

Crowdfunding gives more control and transparency and may be easier to track how the individual properties are performing.

You can get lower rates on individual owner occupied, but why trade that risk?

@Ben Schembri That's exactly why I thought these may be commercial loans or a loan that's being leveraged against business assets instead of an individual person.

Unmarried individuals can exclude up to $250,000 in profit from the sale.

Only a small population of individuals actually end up creating a goal and trying to pursue it at a young age. 

You should speak with a professional.Adding foreign investors into the mix can and often does add significant compliance overhead.US estate tax planning as well as income tax planning needs to be considered for the foreign individual.
